Cause the stock one is 340 fps with .20g.

Can we put it at 400 fps without breaking everything inside the mechbox ?
Keeping in mind this is all theoretical: yes, you should be able to safely go up to 400fps and over. The mechbox itself is reinforced, you can see the extra material, specially around the cylinder head area. My plan is to replace the entire cylinder assembly (including a bearing piston head) to maximize airseal, then install a tightbore, a STAR bearing spring guide and a Sorbothane cushion and see what that brings me up to. I figure with the Sorbothane and the reinforced mechbox, I should be able to safely to 400fps easily. Heck, between the airseal improvement, 509mm tightbore, and bearings on both ends, I'll probably already be fairly close to 400fps with the stock spring.... I hope.

I'm also going to rewire the damn thing, and possibly drop a Trigger Master in. Man, talk about having the upgrades planned before even trying the gun, eh?
